Would you like the opportunity to rub shoulders with the stars of world cricket? Now’s your chance!

On Tuesday the 30th of August, Lashings World XI will be bringing a team to Abbeydale Sports Club in Sheffield.

The likes of Shane Warne and Sachin Tendulkar could be gracing the field against amateurs all for a good cause. Members of this year’s squad also include Gordon Greenidge, Richie Richardson and Phil Defraitas, as well as Yorkshire favourites Darren Gough, Jason Gillespie and Tino Best!

‘The Crab CC’ would like to invite you to a three course lunch and charity auction with the Lashings players in aid of St. Luke’s Hospice. Tables for ten people range from £550-£700 and include the chance to get up close and personal with some of the world’s greatest sportsmen and bid on items such as a week in a £1,000 per night hotel in Abu Dhabi as well as holidays in Barbados and Marbella! Also included in the cost is your matchday ticket and corporate hospitality throughout the day.

There are a limited number of tables, so please book early to come and show your support for such a good local cause.

If you would like to show your support in other ways, sponsorship and advertisement deals are available. There will be a great deal of interest in the event with tickets for spectators available at £5 for adults and £2.50 for children.

This is a fantastic opportunity to impress valued clients, raise the profile of your business or just have a fantastic day!



For more information or to book your place, please contact Tom Barney on 0844 692 7171 or 077355 92199 or email tombarney229@hotmail.com or Russell Walch on 07850 030336 or Russell.k.walch@blueyonder.co.uk

Unfortunately not, but I think it's a very reasonable price considering the difference that the money will make to seriously ill people at St. Luke's. It's also a fantastic opportunity to meet some brilliant cricketers and characters! (That's Lashings, not us!) :-)
